Just to complete this subject. Having search wide and far, there is no such thing as English pale ale liquid malt extract. I just got an email back from Jamil. He thinks that the Maris Otter LME from John Bull would work well. Williamsbrewing.com has Maris Otter extract as well which he thinks would work as well. (and its a little cheaper). Well thank God this quest is over. Now I can R. DW. and HAHB! Brewing this weekend. Yea!

It is wrong to say there is no such thing. English Pale Ale extract is the generic name. It maybe called Muntons or John Bull or Maris Otter extract, but they're all English Pale Ale extracts. It should be pretty easy to find.

It's worth noting for ANY brewer that if you are unsure of an ingredient in a recipe, you should ask your homebrew supplier. They want to answer your questions, or at least they should, because then you'll be better informed, enjoy the hobby more and buy more stuff.

It took me a while after I started brewing to stop looking specifically for Crystal malt. I wasted a lot of time checking various websites for info. If I had just picked up the phone, I would have found out that Crystal and Caramel are used interchangeably. The biggest determining factor is the maltster, not the product name.
